Ischia, Italy’s volcanic paradise, tops 2025 travel lists with stunning views, historic charm, and renowned thermal springs offering a serene escape for visitors.

Ischia, a stunning volcanic island in the Tyrrhenian Sea, just off the coast of Naples, Italy, has been crowned the “best” destination to visit this year by Lonely Planet. Known as the “Green Island” for its lush landscapes, Ischia offers visitors a peaceful escape from the busy city life, with its 105 thermal springs that have been revered since Roman times for their healing powers.

While often overshadowed by the more famous Capri, Ischia presents an authentic Italian experience, away from the crowds. One of its key attractions is Castello Aragonese, a medieval fortress perched on a rocky islet, offering stunning panoramic views and a deep dive into history.

Maronti Beach, one of the island’s longest and most beautiful shores, features warm sands and natural thermal vents, perfect for beach lovers. The best times to visit are in spring (April to June) and early autumn (September to October), offering pleasant weather and fewer tourists. Summer (July to August) is ideal for those who enjoy the beach but be prepared for a more crowded experience.

Ischia’s highest point, Monte Epomeo, stands at 789 meters (2,589 feet) and provides a moderate hike with breathtaking views of the Bay of Naples from the summit. The island is also home to picturesque villages like Sant’Angelo, a serene fishing village with pedestrian-only streets, boutique shops, and delicious seafood restaurants, making it a popular destination for relaxation and thermal baths.
